Hey all!

I am a big Zumba fan and am planning on taking the Hip Hop Hustle class tonight. I am wondering if the calorie burn is like compared to Zumba, anyone know?

Also would love to hear about other's experience with Hip Hop Hustle and/or other classes.

Thanks!
Michaela

  • just like with Zumba, this is very dependent on the unstructor and on how much you put into it! Go out there and shake what your mama gave ya, make the movements big and you will burn a bunch! Have fun!

    I have done both at the Y. I would say the calorie burn is similar in both classes. Obviously the Hip Hop Hustle plays more, well, Hip Hop music vs most Zumba classes I have taken mix the hip hop with Latina music. I actually like the moves and music more in Hip Hop, but also felt a little less coordinated. ;) It's fun, you should definitely give it a try.

    Zumba is more Brazil Butt Lift music than Hip Hop Hustle.... depends on what makes you groove more to the music! Enjoy!

    We have Zumba and Hip Hop Abs at the gym I go to. I think the burn can be very similar. Like someone said earlier the two major factors are the instructor and how much effort you put into it. I may lean more towards the hip hop class because I get into that musice better than the Latin stuff.

    So I tried it and wasn't a big fan. I think it was the instructor she was really focused on the dance portion and getting the routine down whereas my goal was just to move. I hope to try again with another instructor. In the meantime, I'm sticking with Zumba. I love the non-stop action of it, I don't get a chance to get bored or check the time, and am having too much fun for either to happen anyway.

    Thanks for your comments/ suggestions!
